A Reminder

The Strata AGM is to be held on Wednesaday March 10th at The Black Swan, 159 High Street, Swanage.   Meet at 7.30 for 8.00 start.

There will be two items for consideration:

1)      Election of officers  

2)      Constitution of company

 

I have not received any nominations for any of the regular posts (Chair, Treasurer, membership,  events)  so nominations will be accepted from the meeting.

I have not received any notes to circulate about proposed changes to the constitution

 

The official business of the AGM will be followed by an informal Strata meeting to  talk about what’s going on in the arts in Purbeck generally.
